Partner function relationship customer - employee not replicated

Hi Gurus,
We are working on the HR-CRM scenario and we are replicating employees from ECC to CRM. For our purposes we created in ECC 3 custom partner functions.
In CRM we have created and mapped these partner functions, in particular in CRM we have:
u2022Created the relevant custom Relationship categories
u2022Defined the 3 partner functions
u2022Made the mapping for the distribution from ECC to CRM and viceversa
After this we have proceeded as follows:
u2022Replication of the employees from HR to CRM: it works properly
u2022Re - launched the BUPA_REL object in order to update the CRM system
We have used one of these custom partner functions for one customer and as for now these partner functions are not replicated from ECC to CRM.
For instance, in ECC we have a customer with the custom relationship u201CHas the Sales Manageru201D to the employee 90000003.
That employee has been replicated in CRM but the relationship between him and the customer has not been updated in CRM.
Is this the normal behavior? Or there is something missing/wrong in the configuration done?
Thanks a lot.
BR,
Stefano

Hi Dinesh
For automatic partner determination in customer master data you need to make the configuration setting . For that you go to>SPRO>SD>Basic Function> Set UP Partner Determination --> Set up Partner determination for Customer master Data, there you need to do the configuration . For  details configuration  Please search the forum.
Hope it is helpful for you
Thanks

  • Replicating partner function (VE=sales employee) from CRM to ECC

    Hello, we managed to replicate the ECC customers and contact persons to SAP CRM.
    Now we also want to replicate to CRM the partner functions (VE = sales employee) of ECC that are linked to the customer in the sales view. When I replicate the object customer_rel they are not synchronised to CRM. I have maintainted the 'distribution of partner functions from SAP ECC into CRM and vice versa in SPRO.
    What are the different steps that I need to do? What am I missing?
    Should we be alble to see those relationships on BP in CRM once synchronised? If yes, in which relationship? Since the employee responsible is already filled manually for another function.
    Thanks for your help on replicating partner functions from CRM to ECC?
    Kr, Anouck

    Hi Anouck.
    If I've understood correctly, for that you must pass the employees from ECC to CRM first.
    You can do this by running report RHALEINI at ECC side, but you must configure some things first (like creating a CRM grouping to indicate the number range for employees, and to activate at CRM side this integration)

  • BTPartnerSet custom partner function relationships not showing

    Hi all,
    Using program CRM_GENIL_CUST_MAINTAIN I have successfully copied the Z-partner functions into the BTPartnerSet relationships. They are now also maintained in table view CRMV_ORLALL_BTIL so all good.
    However, when going into the GENIL_BOL_BROWSER and I browse the transaction no details of some of the Z-Partner functions are determined. So I do see the relationship but the data for the partner function is not determined.
    Any idea's? Also which class does the reading of the partner functions?
    Thanks,
    John

    Thanks for your input.
    The problem I have is because the partner function is defined with a '_' in it which is not something you should do because the GENIL method does do a split based on the '_' in the relationship name.
    Regards,
    John

  • Sales District and Partner function relationship in customer master

    Hello there
    I am working on a report and need to know one table relation for sales District and Partner function 
    i have a requirement , where i want to list all the partner number/Partner function assign to the customer with ref to the sales District
    we have one partner function Tab at sales Area tab in customer master , and another when we click on Sales district tab at header will get another window where we maintain partner function relate to the sales District , i want to have all those partner function in report , can you please help me where i can find that in table ? when i do F1 its says  KNVP but that table maintain at the sales area leval , not for the Sales District !! if you can help
    thanks
    Sonam

    Hi Sonam -
    and another when we click on Sales district tab at header will get another window where we maintain partner function relate to the sales District
    Do you have custom table/maintenance for sales district? Are you not maintaining Sales District in Sales Tab of customer master.
    You have to look for the field and table where you have maintained sales distict along with Customer and join the customer with KNVP customers and get all the partners.
    For Example - if you have mainationed sales district in KNVV table of BZIRK field then you have to join KNVV -KUNNR with KNVP-KUNNR and extract all records of customer distict and associated partner functions.
    Let me know,if the given solution is not applicable for your case.
    Thanks

  • Account Group and partner functions in customer master records

    Hi Gurus,
    I need your help to confirm the following understand if correct:
    1. To create customer master record for partner function Ship-To, need to create a customer master record using the uniquely assigned account group for Ship-To , that is, 0002 . In this ship-to master record, define in its partner function tab, the other partner functions related to it. 
    2. To create the above, it cannot be achieved by just assigning the partner functions in the partner function tab of SOLD-To customer master record , created using account group 0001.
    Question:
    1. How does the system know or allow what codes a user can select (f4) or enter manually when defining in customer master record's partner function tab, the partner functions and their respective codes?
    How is this controlled? Is it by user authorization? or will user / sales administrator be able to select any codes tied to a partner function?
    2. Lets say there are 2 partner functions : Sales employee VE and 9E called Sales Representative. Both of these partner functions are of Partner Type PE.
    When defining in customer master record's partner function tab, how does the system know what codes is selectable for the administrator for each of these partner functions?
    best regards
    M Russo

    hi russo,
    this is to inform you that,
    1. yes you are right.
    2. you need to follow the steps as you said.
    Question:
    1. that you can find in the search basing on account group for partners.  that assignment we should know russo which SH to be assigned to which SP.  no need to have authorization for that, make a note of the list of SH and SP to be assigned that's all.
    yes, he will able to select any SH from the list but make sure that we assign the correct SH to the list of SP.
    2. that you will be defining it in Partner Determination Procedures.  at the time of CMR creation you have to select the correct code that will get populated in sales order.
    hope this clears your issue.

  • BAPI to add additional partner functions in customer master(KNA1)

    Hello All,
    I wanted to add additional partner functions(2) to the list of partner functions which gets added by default while creating a customer. I am currently using BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATEDATA1 to create the customer master. There i do not find any option to add my partner functions.
    NOTE: I need to update KUNN2 field as well while adding my partner functions.
    Could anyone please help here?

    Hi,
    No you should not feel confident with SD_CUSTOMER_MAINTAIN_ALL.
    It is used for only one very special case. The maintenance of consumer. And this should only be true from the transaction itself.
    There exists other cases, one of the oldest one is the BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATEFROMDATA1. But is is exclusively reserved for SAP Online store.
    Despite the fact CMD_EI_API is quite difficult to use, it has the main benefit that is it supported if being triggered directly.
    For the maintenance of customers, there is NO BAPI and NO direct function module.
    There are some functions modules like the one above where the name is looking nice. But these should not be used.
    The only valid solutions are :
    Below ECC 2005 (6.00), the only solution was batch input and DEBMAS idocs. See note 384462
    Starting with ECC 2005 (6.00) and above: a synchronisation tool has been introduce. See class CMD_EI_API and VMD_EI_API
    Hope this helps

  • Add partner functions to customer master

  • RE:Business partner functions in customer Master creation

    Do we need to send the Business partner functions while creating record in R3 thru MDM.
    For any account group i pass the Idoc is expecting all Business partner functions to be defined for the account group to which am trying to create Customer.(As SH,BP,PY..)
    Can anyone please explain me in brief the Business partner function -Problem in my scenerio............................Concept of  Business Partner function while creating Customer.

    In ECC partner functions are used when you have multiple addresses for the same customer.  The partner function links those address records together.  You could have multiple unique customer numbers on the KNA1 table, but in the KNVVP table (partner functions) you maintain the linkage between the main table records. 
    Partner functions are not recommended in MDM.  These are generally not considered to be "enterprise level attributes" and therefore shouldn't reside in your customer repository in a central create scenario.  Additionally, some of the complexity required to model partner functions can't be modeled in MDM at this time.  When 7.1 comes out, there is a new data type called "tuples" which supports deeply nested structures, and therefore you could model a true partner function table inside the sales area table.

  • Partner functions in Customer master

    Hi,
    Can we maintain partner functions with out maitain customer sales area data, we need to maintain only general and company code data.
    Business scenario - 1. We have some certain customers like carrying only address purposses we dont need maintain company code and sales area, so is sytem creates partner functions once save this type of customers.
    2. same as said in point one some customers need general and company code data, dont need sales area, can system creates partner functions for this.
    regards
    Satish

    Hi Satish C,
                As already expressed by all other friends,
    Just would like to add,
    SAP has given 3 levels to maintain cusotmer relevant data ( General , Company Code & Sales area) & you are already aware of the same.
    But each level has its own importance & it can be based on how you would like to use the respective partners in specific transactions.
    for eg:
    in Billing- Bill to / Payer is required to have Company Code data & Ship to doesnt need to have Company Code data.
    In FI transactions- Customer doesnt need to have Sales area data.
    similarly, it all depends on how you want to use.
    NOte: if any partners using in Sales documents, should have General & Sales area data is mandatory. Company data is in billing.
    Just to maintain the address, if its ok with your client, you can go for different partner function ( if required in sales transactions) & add in sales area data.

  • LSMW problem with Partner functions in Customer Master

    Hi All,
    Requirement is to load the Customer Master Data using LSMW.
    Loading General data is ok, But when I am planning to load the
    partner function using the recording method in LSMW, How do I upload
    more than '1' Ship to party partners and more than '1'
    Bill to party partners using LSMW.
    Normally in table control there is a "+" button at the end of the
    table control which when pressed enters one line in table control,In
    Partner function screen , there is no such button available, so how
    can I determine which line am I supposed to enter data using LSMW.
    One partner can have multiple no of BP and SH partners like more than 10
    of both types. How do I upload these partner functions in SAP using LSMW?
    Regards,
    Ajay

    That a customer master has several business partners is just usual, a customer can have as well several company codes and sales areas. So where exactly is the problem?
    Most problems come with recordings, recordings should be the last option, not the first.
    What import method do you use?

  • Upload partner functions to customer master using LSMW

    Dear Friends,
    I'm trying to uplaod customer partner functions data through LSMW. I have tried to upload the data using recording method in LSMW(Tr. code: XD02).
    As per the business requirement, I need to upload multiple number(For example: 10 records) of SP(Sold to) partners to a single customer.
    While executing session, instead of adding all 10 records of partner functions, only the last record(i.e 10th records) is adding in the customer master.
    Your response will be highly appraciated.
    Regards
    Satish

    Hi Satish,
    You can't use XD02 to upload multiple partner functions by recording the transaction. It will not create multiple entries, always it will replace the existing ones with the new entry. you need to use the standard BI program or Idoc method do the same.
    I know the scenarios for the vendors it didnot work in that way for me at that time I used Standard BI method to create the multiple partner associations.

  • How to find master data info objects. Partner function and customer class.

    hi,
    Can you please tell me what are the available extractors for Partner Function (PARVW from VBPA)and Customer Class (KUKLA from KNA1).
    I hope these fields are master data. I checked in 0customer. But I didn't find it. There is a info object (Business partner). Is it the same?
    pls reply

    I will admit that I am not familiar with ECC and there may be different interpretations of what KUKLA means and different means of extracting Customer information to/from ECC.
    However, for us, when extracting Customer Attributes using the 0CUSTOMER_ATTR datasource in R/3, we map KUKLA to 0CUST_CLASS.  They are both set up as 2 CHAR.  That is not to say that you should also.  You can map it to a custom infoobject in BW as long as you set it up as an attribute of 0CUSTOMER.  KUKLA is available in the standard datasource 0CUSTOMER_ATTR in R/3.  When looking at what is available in the infosource for 0CUSTOMER in BW, 0CUST_CLASS is a logical choice to map.
    As far as VBPA-PARVW, VBPA is not a source for master data for 0BPARTNER.  VBPA contains the business partners associated with Sales documents.  So if you are going to create a data provider (cube/ODS) in BW and VBPA-PARVW is part of the transactional datasource in R/3, the you can map it to 0BPARTNER in your cube/ODS.
    Hope this helps.

  • Creation of partner functions for customer master with LSMW

    Hello,
    I try to create partner functions together with a customer via Batch Input in LSMW.
    Object: 0050, method: 0000, program name: RFBIDE00, program type: B.
    I use the structure BKNVP (Customer master partner functions) to create a new partner and set values for the fields KTONR and PARVW.
    When I start the batch input the fields are filled in correctly in a new dynpro. After the confirmation of these values the dynpro changes back to the partner functions sscreen, but the value for KTONR isn'n being transferred. So I get an error message.
    Is it only possible to update partner functions with that BI or what is going wrong ?
    Thanks in advance and regards

    Hi Alex,
    Could you specify what error message you are getting?
    Thanks!

  • Partner function for customer through IDOC

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement in which I need to create the customer master through IDOC. I am using DEBMAS basic type for that. In its functionality, I need to assign different partner functions to it.
    When I create customer without giving any partner details,  4 entries get created by default with partner functions as BP, SP, PY, SH and KUNN2 value as INTERNAL or the same customer number which is getting created. But I want that the customer number provided by me should be assigned as partner function. Is there any way to change the default entry which is getting created so that I can replace the INTERNAL customer number with the one provided by me.
    I identified the segment as E1KNVPM in it at hierarchy level 3. I passed the partner function in the PARVW field of it and provided the customer number which I want to assign as partner function in the KUNN2 field. But I am getting error Customer INTERNAL already exists for function <Partner function>.
    Am I missing something. Any msgfn or any other input.
    Please help me on this.
    Thanks
